Thoracic surgery is the treatment and repair of the organs found within the thorax, a.k.a. the chest. This includes the lungs, esophagus, trachea, pleura, mediastinum, diaphragm and chest wall. Thoracic surgery includes the pre-operative, operative, and post-operative care of the acquired and hereditary conditions  within the chest. Our goal is to make your care as simple and as understandable as possible. 

Here we provide you with some information as a guide to some of the tests and treatments you may be undergoing with us. Please remember that your family doctor is the best source for your specific health questions.
